The company that Sabrina works for has given her $100 to spend on tea and coffee for the office. Tea costs $18 per
pound, and coffee costs $15 per pound.
Write an equation that represents the amount of tea and coffee Sabrina can purchase. From the equation, create a graph
and use it to determine how much tea Sabrina can buy if she buys 3 pounds of coffee.
To begin, write an equation in standard form that deschibes the situation. Let t = amount of tea, and let
c = amount of coffee.
Which equation models the situation?
18t+15c 100
O + ² = 100
Ot+c=100
15t+18c= 100
